Like those old email forwards we all pretended to hate when we were teenagers, but we really loved because they gave us even more reasons to be self-obsessed, Mark has forced me into this "4 meme." (see his tag here ). Rookie technocrat that I am, I have no idea what this term even means; all I know is that it is taking up room on my blog.Four jobs I've had:1) "If you practice ten times this week I'll give you only 2 songs to learn..." (piano teacher)2) "Yes, we all live here, yup, it is kind of like a commune, yes, on site, no, I don't really get bored...see, there's a lot of mountains around, yeah, I'm from Manitoba, yeah, that's in the middle of Canada..." (server at Num-ti-Jah Lodge, Alberta)3) "No, these sandals aren't particularly good for ankle-support." (MEC)4) "WOW, compost actually makes dirt! " (community garderner/green team)

Four movies I can watch over and over:1) Amelie(for the playfulness)2) Before Sunset(for the dialogue)3) Contact(for the themes)4) Baraka(for the cinematography)Four of my favorite foods:1) ants on a log2) baklava3) calamata olives4) the legendary Ward family googly buns
